The Ash Heap:

As a means to update you all without writing a book - I'm going to start posts called "The Ash Heap" - I used to follow a pastor in Georgia's blog - and he would do a "Sunday Night Dump" and just spill his thoughts from the week. So this will be mine: a collection of random things in no particular order.

• I'm beginning to rethink our decision to take this apartment. The land lady is asking for rent and we havent moved in. They have yet to finish the windows and want a check tomorrow. FYI: I'm not paying rent until I get a key to a finished apartment. Steven called to bring the smack down on Mr. Land Lady today. We'll see how that goes -
• My pal Trish is getting married next week. I'm her photographer and I'm a little nervous. I can do this, but I'm still nervous. I have to find something to wear...
• Money for our DR trip isn't coming in as we'd like. We need $1200 by the end of the month & another 1200 three weeks after that. To date, we have $432
• Life seems too busy. I never have enough time in the day.
• Im ready to be a mom. I want to stay at home and be the wife God has called me to be. We still have 2 years to go -
• In addition to birthing my own children, Steven & I want to adopt a few. He's going to be a fantastic daddy one day.
• I've gained 4lbs since December and I can't seem to kick them. I haven't been working hard enough. Time to step it up.
• I havent been very disciplined in the last 6 months. That ends today.
• I got a haircut. It's short. I like it... but I'm ready for my long virgin locks again. (no dye)
• The enemy has been working overtime in my life lately - lots of attacks. Satan, you have no victory here.
• I'm learning more and more about who my God is and what that means for me as a believer.
• I'm glad I'm not the person I used to be.
• Life is hard.... but God is good.
• I love my husband. A lot. Sometimes I want to cry at the amount of love that man has for me. Second to God, he is my treasure.
• My mom, grandma, and 11yr old nephew are coming to see me in three weeks!!!!
• I miss my family... but I do not miss Arkansas -West Virginia's beauty never gets old.... it still takes my breath away
• I miss Leasa
